The three defining traits of a bottom:
Cool and aloof, soft around the waist, and easy to push down.
Yi Youxing has all of these traits.
But what he wants to be is a top.
-
Yi Youxing is a famously antisocial shut-in in the rock scene.
At work, he spouts nonsense and says bizarre things. The jokes he posts most often on Weibo are about bass guitars.
In private, he roams the world in a black mask, black hat, and black clothes, cosplaying as the Black Impermanence.
One day, he woke from a dream to hear a mechanical voice in his head:
[Congratulations, you have been selected for the Perfect Bottom Plan. From now on, you must complete missions to live a normal life.
If you disobey a mission, you will be punished with various physical ailments.]
[Mission One: Appear on a variety show and display your seductive charm to attract the Best Actor.]
Yi Youxing: ?
He rolled over and went back to sleep, but halfway through, he woke up with pain all over his body.
[Beep. Since the Host has disobeyed instructions, the pain has been set to level one.]
Yi Youxing fell silent, turned around, and went straight to the bathroom for a cold shower.
Some System, some bottom plan.
Yi Youxing slowly raised a finger:
I refuse to submit.
-
Yi Youxing meant what he said.
The System told him to go west, so he went east. It told him to go right, so he went left.
Before long, he had experienced everything from fevers to deafness and blindness.
He threw the missions into disarray time and again, and the punishments grew more and more severe.
He no longer had the strength to pick up his instrument. He could never hear another note. He groped his way through the darkness...
He couldn't bear it.
So he chose to give up.
Yep, he was giving up on life itself.
Yi Youxing groped his way onto the balcony. Without changing expression, he leaped over the railing...
To hell with this world.
Wait a second.
Yi Youxing realized he had stopped in midair. A pair of hands was holding him up.
His hearing was the first thing to return when he was touched.
He heard the person say, "Yi Youxing, protagonist of World 001, Novel Number 001."
Then his vision returned.
He blinked in a daze:
Blue sky, a red sun, and a head of golden curls filling his view.
The person brought him back to the balcony and gave him an impeccably rehearsed fake smile:
"Hello, I'm a world restorer. My name is Guiling. We've detected an anomaly in this space..."
Yi Youxing: "Holy crap, a flying man!"
-
Guiling was a good person.
He said he was here to set Yi Youxing's life back to normal.
Yi Youxing believed him.
Because Guiling told him:
"You have free will, and I can see it."
An antisocial shut-in who absolutely refuses to be a bottom x a passionate, bumbling newbie just starting the job
[Note: The top isn't frail or delicate, he's just a malnourished shut-in. Those three defining traits actually just mean he has a sour face, stays home all the time, and can't be bothered to move. T.T]

The blurb and protagonist's name may change, but the core premise won't.
No cannon-fodder bottoms. The protagonists' feelings for each other are crystal clear.
